If the perimeter of each face of a cube is 32 cm, find its lateral surface area. Note that four faces which meet the base of a cube are called its leteral faces.

Given,


Perimeter of each face of a cube = 32 cm


Let each edge will be = a cm


So,


4a = 32


= a =


Lateral surface area of cube = 4a2 = 4×82 = 256 cm2
